Description:
 The Math.random function in the JavaScript implementation in Mozilla
 Firefox 3.5.10 through 3.5.11, 3.6.4 through 3.6.8, and 4.0 Beta1 uses a
 random number generator that is seeded only once per document object, which
 makes it easier for remote attackers to track a user, or trick a user into
 acting upon a spoofed pop-up message, by calculating the seed value,
 related to a "temporary footprint" and an "in-session phishing attack."
 NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incorrect fix for
 CVE-2008-5913.
Ubuntu-Description:
Notes:
 jdstrand> CVEs in Firefox are tracked in the xulrunner source packages for
  builds that use the system xulrunner, and firefox source packages for those
  that use a static build
   xulrunner (1.8.0): firefox (1.5) - Ubuntu 6.06 LTS (system xul)
   xulrunner (1.8.1): firefox (2.0) - Ubuntu 6.10 - 8.04 LTS (system xul)
   xulrunner-1.9: (ignored) reverse dependencies no longer process web content
   xulrunner-1.9.1: (ignored) reverese dependencies no longer process web content
   xulrunner-1.9.2: system xul for reverese dependencies that process web content
   firefox: Ubuntu 6.06 LTS (static build)
   firefox: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS and higher (static build of 3.6.x or higher)
   firefox-3.0: Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, 9.04 (static build of 3.6.x)
   firefox-3.5: Ubuntu 9.04 (ignored, uses system xul 1.9.1. Use 3.0 instead)
   firefox-3.5: Ubuntu 9.10 (static build of 3.6.x)
